For India’s high velocity class, purpose is the new luxury. Enter Premal Patel, the international business leader many call the corporate connector, a specialist at building human bridges across cultures and generations. At 56, he chose reinvention over routine, stepping off a secure corporate track to shape impact on his own terms.
YANGA Unplugged, short for Your Actions Nourish Growth Ambitions, is not a memoir in the usual sense. It is a precision tooled field guide for people who want results without losing themselves in the noise. The organising principle is simple and practical. Energy and time are your most finite currencies. Invest them with intent, prune the drains, and write things down. The act of writing slows the mind, clarifies choices, and makes action stick.
Patel’s lens on growth is human first. He lost his father when he was ten months old, and he elevates the mentors and father figures who stepped in. He also separates mentors and coaches with care. Mentors offer technical direction. Coaches surface answers you already hold. For founders and CXOs who juggle scale and self awareness, that distinction matters.
The book’s tone is composed and tactical. Act first, refine as you go, then repeat. Patel draws on a life that began as a new arrival in London in the early 1970s and evolved into leadership across three continents. Where many business books preach hustle, YANGA Unplugged asks you to unplug from scripts that no longer serve you. Put Yourself First. Celebrate Your Journey. Reshape Your Destiny. The mantra lands as invitation, not instruction.
Launched globally in August 2025, the book is available across major platforms through IngramSpark distribution. That helps the Indian reader who lives on planes and stocks a tablet as carefully as a travel kit. Whether you run a Mumbai startup, steward a Delhi family office, or lead a cross border team from Bengaluru and Dubai, Patel’s promise stays steady. Reclaim your narrative, convert adversity into momentum, and lead with intention.
In a market full of status symbols, YANGA Unplugged argues for a subtler flex, clarity. The most compelling luxury in modern India is not the car you park or the club you enter. It is the agency to chart your next chapter, and the discipline to act on it.
